These short-term carbon savings are potentially detrimental to the long-term futureproofing of a building.

An adaptable building is one that could be easily modified to suit its changing requirements, allowing it to avoid premature demolition and reconstruction, and the associated carbon emissions. This paper explores what is meant by adaptability in the built environment, suggestions for design strategies and the benefits and drawbacks of each. The paper expressly emphasises the importance of balancing the needs of the present day, through upfront carbon reductions, with the consequences in the long-term, through accelerated building obsolescence, demolition and rebuild. The paper concludes with the recommendation that further research is needed into the true benefits of adaptability design strategies, factoring in the uncertainty of future predictions and the time-value of carbon.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":74689,"journal":{"name":"Resources, conservation & recycling advances","volume":"18 ","pages":"Article 200158"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49869094","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recycling demolition waste is thus a useful and practical way to conserve resources in the construction sector. For climate protection, it is important to investigate the material-induced grey energy of the recycling process. In this study we ask how grey energies induced by construction products based on secondary differ from equivalent products based on virgin materials. To evaluate this, we use a novel multi-stage assessment method presented in this paper. With this method, for the first time, we are able to calculate grey energy of entire recycling process chains starting from construction and demolition waste and ending with the new secondary material based building product, taking into account all the adjustments necessary to guarantee its functional equivalence to primary material based products. In 15 of the 19 process chains analysed, the use of RC material leads to in part rather significant positive grey energy impacts i.e. energy savings. In nine cases, the savings are over 50%, in six cases they are lower. The most important influential factors is the quality of both, the initial demolition material and the final construction product, defined by the product requirements. Furthermore, we conclude that an integrated recycling system is essential to ensure the recycling of co-products discharged during individual processing steps and provide evidence for further scientific discussion on how recycling can contribute to climate-neutral construction.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":74689,"journal":{"name":"Resources, conservation & recycling advances","volume":"18 ","pages":"Article 200139"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49818101","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thereafter, the following steps are: (i) the identification of the waste management scenarios (WMSs) applicable to the identified waste typologies, (ii) the selection of Life Cycle Assessment processes that can be used to assess the impacts of the different WMSs and (iii) the quantification and comparison of the environmental impacts caused by the different WMSs applied considering hazardousness levels to which the same waste may belong in relation to its contamination levels and characteristics: inert, non-hazardous and hazardous waste (Waste Framework Directive 2008/98/EC). As results, a matrix reporting the classes and typologies of waste, their EWC codes, their different WMSs and the suitable LCA processes from the Ecoinvent database that can be applied to each EWC within a specific WMS, has been developed. Additionally, the comparative assessment of the impacts caused by the Ecoinvent processes applicable to the same waste typology within the same WMS has been performed to support the selection of the most appropriate WMS case by case.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":74689,"journal":{"name":"Resources, conservation & recycling advances","volume":"18 ","pages":"Article 200155"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49818108","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Linear viscoelastic properties, rutting, and fatigue cracking performance were evaluated, and results were compared to those obtained on neat and polymer-modified bitumen with high styrene-butadiene-styrene content (HiPMB). The non-recoverable creep compliance was reduced with the increasing addition of DVR with either LDPE or PP, and the modified bitumen can be classifiable as “E” grade like the common HiPMB. Bitumen modified with DVR-LDPE compounds showed the best fatigue cracking performance overall, and can fully replace the industrial HiPMB. The implications of these results go beyond the sole performance improvement since these compounds can significantly reduce the environmental impact of road construction by using two waste materials simultaneously.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":74689,"journal":{"name":"Resources, conservation & recycling advances","volume":"18 ","pages":"Article 200157"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49818110","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

EWU quantifies the share of the environmental value of waste which is preserved through waste management. It is operationalized via a spreadsheet-based calculation tool, the EWU Dashboard. Case studies on plastic packaging waste, PAH-contaminated road debris, and food waste are presented to demonstrate the application range of EWU and its advantages against material efficiency indicators.
